Books and E-books in Research

Finding Books in the WCC Library PRIMO Smart Search Database

You can search for books by keyword, title, author, or subject using the Bailey Library catalog. 

Enter a title, author or keyword into the search box. Optional: Select word or phrase, subject, author, or title from the drop down menu to specify what you're looking for. Click the search button to run the search. If any books come up in the search, they will appear as a list of results.

There are two types of books in the catalog: print books and eBooks. Print books will have a call number underneath the title and eBooks are labeled E-BOOK underneath the title. Keep this in mind if you have a preference for one or the other.

Why use books in college research? 

Books are a good source for research in college for many reasons, including: 

  • In-depth coverage: Books can provide a comprehensive and thorough examination of a topic. 
  • Background information: Books can provide background information and overviews of large topics. 
  • Research ideas: Books can help researchers identify research needs and ideas for future research.
